[WikiEN-l] Re: Admin meeting

The fact that there are so many admins is one of teh key reasons why I  think 
that such a meeting is so important. It is vital for people to get to know  
one another a little better and see who the active admins are. 
 
At the same time, I also think it is important that the admins be made  aware 
of some things on a Foundation level. What should they be looking out for?  
How can they resolve problems effectively? What are the exact policities and  
when (gasp) should these policies be overlooked in the larger interest of the  
project? 
 
The meeting would take place on IRC as Cimon suggested. I think Fred's  ideas 
are excellent, and we can certainly consider implementing an admin only  IRC 
channel and mailing list. These are things that can be brought up at the  
meeting. 
 
I realize that the meeting will be clumsy at first because of all the  people 
involved. I would like, however, to suggest that we try it and see  how many 
people actually show up. We can, of course, have additional meetings as  
necessary, and may realize that one meeting is impractical. As a full-time  
Wikipedian, I will make a point of being at any meeting suggested. 
 
Suggested time, anyone?
